If you’re not familiar with the online store, Boohoo has increased in popularity over the years, collecting over 479k followers on Twitter alone. The brand also offers Boohoo Plus, a range of ‘fashion for the fuller figure’, and the line includes sizes 16 to 24.

The model in the images Suzie highlighted appears in several listings for the store, and Boohoo lists her as wearing a size 16 on several other product adverts, though not everyone believed that to be true.

Suzie’s complaint has been liked more than 900 times, and racked up a whopping 350 retweets, with the sentiment behind it cutting deep, more so for some than others.

Another user agreed: ‘this is ridiculous. so bloody infuriating’ and a third wrote: ‘This is awful!!!!’

However, not everyone was in agreement with the backlash, with one follower saying: ‘She’s definitely a size 14 at least. Just a beautiful healthy gorgeous woman with curves – which is exactly what plus size should be for’.

‘She’s def bigger than the other models,’ a second echoed. ‘Boohoo are 1 of the only sites sizes are actually real, regardless of how the model looks!love them’.
